Ford is recalling certain F-150 pickup trucks with a part that could break and cause the vehicles to roll away when parked.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the truck's rear axle hub bolt could break and cause the axle hub splines to become damaged.
"Damaged axle hub splines can result in a vehicle roll away when the vehicle is in park without the parking brake applied, or cause a loss of drive power," NHTSA official Alex Ansley wrote in a letter to Ford. "Both of these conditions can increase the risk of a crash."
